Mike
College Instructor for Writing, Reading and Test-Taking
I’ve met students who thought they were terrible writers and students who thought they were excellent writers, but I’ve always been surprised that all students, regardless of confidence, think they can become “better†writers simply by learning more adjectives or writing longer sentences.

Instead, writers are trying to make documents that create and... Read more

Joel- How to Get Easy A's
A tutor changed my life. I grew up with a severe speech impediment which made my aspirations of becoming a theatre and film director nearly impossible. My parents brought me to a tutor who invested in my development. She modeled patience and persistence. Overcoming my deficiency meant having a growth mindset. I worried less about getting anything right and more about making it right. Thanks to my tutor I overcame my deficiency. Jump ahead a decade, and I am directing commercial Off-Broadway p... Read more
